They don’t mention that after a year you could end up with a draw full of Deadpool keychains and bottle openers you never use. If you visit the site, Loot Crate is pretty mean with details on the type of stuff you’re going to get.įor each type of box, they only show you the coolest stuff you MIGHT get. This brings me to my next point- the quality of some of the merchandise. And if you check out review boards online lots of people seem to be getting duds. This is a pretty common sight: Just because I get a box of cool stuff doesn’t mean you won’t get a box of duds. You have no idea what you’re going to get. Subscribing to Loot Crate is A LOT like gambling. As someone who’s a big kid at heart, the idea of getting surprises every month is super appealing! The idea of getting a box of gifts in the mail every month is appealing. Verdict: Is Loot Crate worth it?Īs an out and proud nerd, I can see the appeal of Loot Crate. These are one-off boxes from a range of different franchises ( DC, Marve, Doom, etc) and they feature exclusive clothing, mainly T-Shirts. These would probably make for good gift ideas.įinally, the last type of Limited Edition Box is Capsule Collections. I don’t know many geeky Mariah Carey superfans but I guess there are some out there. These also rotate in and out but current options include Britney Spears, My Chemical Romance, and Mariah Carey. There are also artist crates that include merch from a specific celebrity. These boxes tend to be a little bit more expensive than the monthly boxes but you have a better chance of getting high-quality gear from them. For example, one current option is a $50 Home Alone crate. They rotate in and out pretty often so I’m not going to waste time going through them individually. Lootcrate also offers a range of one-off limited edition boxes. With these special boxes, Loot Crate also tends to tell you the coolest stuff you can get. These are slightly safer options as you at least have a rough idea of the niche your merch will be coming from. Right now, there’s LootFright for $35 a month and Loot Sci-fi for $50 every 3 months. Pop culture also features 2 more options that change occasionally. So probably only go for these boxes if you have pretty broad interests or just like collecting cool bits and bobs. It could well be from some franchise you’ve never heard of. It could be film-inspired anime or gaming. The Merchandise/ gear you get from these boxes can be from pretty much any niche of fandom. These are probably the two riskiest Loot Crate options. Premium seems to mean bigger/ better figurines, cool clothes, etc. Loot Crate DX is the deluxe version and will cost you around $50 a month for 3-5 “premium” items. Loot Crate will set you back just under $25 per month and you’ll get 3+ items. The 2 main options are the original Loot Crate and Loot Crate DX. This is the original Loot Crate experience. There are currently 5 categories to choose from and each one has a range of options: Pop-culture: They’re pretty cagey on Loot Crate’s past crates. It can be hard to know exactly what kind of stuff you could get. This is because it’s Loot Crate’s main business model and most likely the option you’ll be looking at. Ok, so we’re going to talk about the subscription boxes first. This is great if like me you’re sometimes away from home for extended periods. If you opted for a monthly box there’s also the nifty option to skip a box. If you leave it too late to cancel you could end up paying for a box you don’t want. If you plan on canceling your subscription just be aware to note down your billing date. You’ll get charged monthly and you can cancel your subscription at any time. Signing up for Loot Crate is just like signing up for a magazine subscription. Input shipping address and payment info.Choose your clothing sizes (shirt, shoe, and waist).Pick the type of box you want (more on that later).The Loot Crate process is relatively simple
